New fourth round of covid jabs

I don't really care I am just happy to be able to go into work and get on with my projects.

This recent 'Yellow Card' reporting makes for interesting reading (the first line perpetuating the false impression of the number of people dying 'from' Covid );

https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... UzQPGnIFFI

As does the following. Statistically insignificant (the deaths at least), but nevertheless simply not talked about in the media

A positve LFT is probably worth a tidy sum to anyone wanting a week off in the public sector.

Yes, strange how the NHS suddenly had a huge staff shortage, due to Covid, over the Christmas period...............

Big surprise at the peak of the Omicron cases. Anyone with positive test self isolates.

Yeeeeeeeeees, I see you managed to leave out the last couple of lines of my post

Someone showed me their faked LFT. He claimed that all he did was pour warm water onto the thing and both lines showed up. He then took a picture of it and sent it into work.
How true this is I don't know but if it is this simple to fake a test anyone could do it.

Not relevant, doesn't happen.

Thank gawd for that. Are there any other things that don't happen???? Such as thousands of immigrants pouring in over the channel for instance.

But the the important part is the bit at the bottom of the page:


"Conclusion
Vaccines are the best way to protect people from COVID-19 and have already saved tens of thousands of lives. Everyone should continue to get their vaccination when invited to do so unless specifically advised otherwise.

As with all vaccines and medicines, the safety of COVID-19 vaccines is being continuously monitored.
The expected benefits of the vaccines in preventing COVID-19 and serious complications associated with COVID-19 far outweigh any currently known side effects in the majority of patients."

+1.....vaccines are a no-brainer...........I can't imagine what state we'd have been in if "soshul meedja" and it's associated f***wits had been around in the days of polio, diptheria, TB, smallpox etc.......

(And yes, I do appreciate that Full-Bore is social media, but Facebook/Twitter/ etc it definitely ain't... )

Considering it starts the document with the "150k deaths after testing positive for covid" double speak/lie I don't really put that much stock in the rest other than the figures.

Can you give me a reason that you think it is double speak or a lie?
